Ever since I formally began Afternoon Media, I knew I wanted to offer video in some capacity. Fun fact – I actually got my start in wedding video + have a film degree! That’s why I’m super thrilled that this year I’ve added wedding video + Super 8 services to my offerings. During my consultations […]

Loren + Joe’s intimate ceremony at The Frick was picture-perfect. These two wanted to celebrate with their closest family and friends in a way that was still thoughtful, beautiful, and intentional while still being fun and low-fuss. I think they absolutely nailed it!!! When we first chatted, Joe shared that while planning their event with […]

Sadie + Noah’s October fall celebration was so uniquely THEM and unlike any wedding I had ever photographed before! Taking place in Sadie’s hometown of Johnstown, their celestial-themed day with DIY details looked stunning in the historic Grand Halle. I started my day at Sadie’s parents house, which had some very cool historical architecture (fitting […]

Leah + Chad’s gorgeously moody, vintage-inspired October wedding was definitely an Afternoon Media all-time favorite. Every detail was planned super intentionally – even down to the napkins! The day was both elevated and eclectic, incorporating jewel tones, funky florals, and velvet textures. I love when my couples consider every single detail and create a day […]

Jack + Josie’s early October wedding was beautifully autumnal (despite the 80 degree weather) and incredibly fun. Handcrafted details, a cute furry guest of honor, and a SICK streamer exit made for an unforgettable celebration!!! Their day shows that even if you follow a “traditional” wedding structure, there are still so many ways to incorporate […]

Bailey + Kevin’s early fall celebration at The Audrey in Canonsburg, PA was so cool that I could hardly stand it. Except I did…and it was amazing. These two wanted a clean, moody-minimalist vibe for their day that still showcased their personality, and I think they definitely delivered! The color scheme was black and white […]

Gabrielle and Cameron’s (or, Gabs and Cam) Appalachian, autumnal, DIY wedding was absolutely perfect and 100% them. I was overjoyed to be a part of it – both as a guest and as their photographer. They are some of my favorite people ever, so I was thrilled when they asked me to photograph their day […]

Ellie + Shane’s sweet summer garden party was nothing short of incredible. From the first time I chatted with them, I knew their aesthetic game would be UNMATCHED. Combine that with the lush August greens + gorgeous manor at Succop Nature Park, bolo ties, dappled light, tear-jerker vows, a funky first dance, Super 8, 35mm […]

Ryley + Sumun’s wedding this summer was a vibrant, lively celebration filled with colorful florals, funky signage, and a boatload of emotional moments – all with the lush botanical background of Phipps Conservatory! R + S truly made the day their own, and their sincerity, goofiness, and pure love for each other is on display […]

While Sadie + Noah discussed their ideas for an engagement session with me, they said they wanted the fun, industrial vibes of Pittsburgh without ‘looking like tourists’. I suggested one of my favorite photo spots in the Strip District – Coop de Ville! It has a huge variety of backdrops and cute activities for couples […]
